  • Isn’t that functionally what a flatpak is?

  • I’ve been using yay for years, and it is sufficient. First time I’ve heard of paru.

    Other than being written in rust, how does paru improve the experience of AUR wrapping?

  • Meditating with AuDHD: How do you do it?

    Jump

  • If you’ve never meditated before, starting with their beginner course and doing one every day is your best bet.

    Integrating it into your daily schedule is key. Example: “Oh, I’m getting ready to work, time to do meditation,” or some other time that isn’t the end of the day, and you won’t feel like you have time pressure. Consistency and regular practice are the most helpful.

    There was a study that showed smaller, more regular mindful practice was the best result (something like 10 minutes 5 days a week was most effective at improving mood and feeling clearer headed)

    Even after thousands of minutes of meditation, I still feel a big difference when I do it regularly vs skipping a week.

    The mind is a muscle, and meditation is a form of training. Good luck friend!

    Edit: Another app with a different approach worth trying is FitMind. It focused more science backed approaches to meditation and explains some interesting things. Tried the demo but didn’t buy.

  • Meditating with AuDHD: How do you do it?

  • I have pretty severe adhd (combined type). I use the Headspace app for guided meditations, and my favorite course is “Managing Anxiety.”

    Rather than simply accepting the train of crazy thoughts, which is hard, it teaches me to categorize thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations into a few groups.

    1. Thinking or feeling (physical or emotional). Do this for a while.
    2. eventually add “pleasant, unpleasant, or neutral”.
    3. After a good bit of practice, it adds “in a word, name the thought or feeling” and talks you through how to do that healthily.

    This categorization is an active step that helps the mind acknowledge a thought or feeling without being sucked into it or identifying with it. I use a similar labeling method when I struggle to stay calm. This idea is to start labeling the individual feelings and bodily signs rather than feeling anxious or excited: thinking or saying to myself “elevated heart rate”, “sweaty palms”, “rapid shallow breathing”. It’s a grounding exercise you can do anytime to check in with your body and add distance to the emotion, rather than attaching your current state to a lizard brain feeling.

    The broader goal of meditation isn’t to “be zen”, or without thought, but rather to help you separate your thoughts from your identity. Once you learn to recognize the signs of various feelings through regular practice, noting, and labeling, you may learn to use the tools to help reset a little when you’re NOT meditating.

    If you’re like me with a hyper sensory experience (mine is sound), then learning to identify when a sensation is present can also help to ground you.

    Anyway, hope that helps. I can answer questions if you have any.

  • I’ve never met a desktop GUI bigger than a single page with buttons that wasn’t messy and complicated.

    Granted, I’m used to Qt in C++ and python, so I don’t think I’m the best sample collector.

  • Type checkers are your friend if you can enforce them. I’ve started using them in my new projects and find that they make those types of bugs harder to sneak in, especially if you’re strict about requiring type hints/definitions in your functions and classes.

    I like ty, but it’s immature. Check out Pyright as well.

    What will happen if a huge number of active, adequate people come on lemmy, for example, 1 million in 2026?

    Jump

  • I think the decline in quality is true. Any time a community gets big enough it becomes a target for manipulation and bots. We try to defend against these, but it’s hard.

    Not sure the Lemmy community is at adequacy, but I think we’ve definitely a quality+quantity threshold high enough to be engaging and have new content every day, without having to scroll for hours to see things.

    90% of the memes I see are posted by about 3 people that I know by name.

  • Republicans in Congress mocked Trump privately, Marjorie Taylor Greene says

    Jump

  • Honestly, Greene might be a savvier politician than she gets credit for.

    • She picks the right coat tails to run on the first time.
    • She is loud and visible in a way that everyone knows her name.
    • She picks the right time to exit Congress to further her future goals of public office and also give the appearance of distancing herself from the now-toxic coattails she ran behind.

    I’m sure there are more examples, but those stick out as “there’s a lot of acting here to look a certain way.”

    She’s absolutely a likely dark triad personality candidate, so I hate her. But I have to admit she’s a clever politician.

  • Looking for a good wiki based off of a git repo

    Jump

  • Also, if you do it right, I’m pretty sure you can cross-link your git repo’s markdown files without using the built in wiki.

    This makes it a lot more portable if you want to update the wiki in your favorite text editor.

  • You can love the art and hate the artist. Which I do.

    On the other hand: typically the value of painting-type art has to do with the story of the artist. So if the artist is a spoiled rich white boy, then his paintings of slums and poor people will likely not take off as a cultural phenomenon.

  • This is the way.

    I have a similar setup in my home office, where I have a floor standing desk lamp with a reflector to direct the light that I have pointed straight at the wall for indirect lighting.
